In the market for a micro-ATX case? Overclockers Club has just published a review of the Xigmatek Gigas that you might be interested in.

With all opinions aside, and looking at the numbers themselves, the case does well. Despite the seemingly lack of air holes for airflow the case actually cools quite well; after all it is a massive heatsink itself and I have the feeling the small size makes it somewhat of a wind tunnel inside. The case is built rather well, and as long as you can puzzle the pieces back together it holds up to a rather decent build.
 
What is with this remark in their review:

OCC said:
Supporting only micro-ATX and ITX boards, you likely won't be trying to fit your OC'd gaming rig inside; rather perhaps a nice little HTPC to encourage you out of your room once in awhile.

Did he sleep through the release of the release of Asus Gene Maximus and Rampage mATX boards? Small doesn't mean underpowered anymore.
 
Srsly, that review was shit. You could tell he hated the case right from the start.

Also, screw that site and the last page of their reviews with that irritating pop-up video ad that you can't close for 15 seconds.
 
practically no way to cable manage = no sale
 
I don't like the case, but that reviewer wasn't so great. It seemed like he was reviewing something he hated (as baldrik said).
